Tottenham Hotspur need to strengthen their squad if they are to compete on all fronts.

Reports emanating from Spain the morning suggest that Spurs have entered the race to sign Sevilla midfielder Steven N'Zonzi, according to Spanish media outlet AS.

The French midfielder has impressed during his time spent in La Liga, with a series of dominating displays in the middle of the park.

AS claim that there are a whole host of clubs interested in securing the former Stoke City and Blackburn Rovers star's signature, however, including the likes of Chelsea, Everton, Juventus and Manchester City.

Whilst the need for Tottenham to strengthen their options over the next two transfer windows is without question, whether they need another central midfielder is arguable, with the likes of Victor Wanyama, Mousa Dembele and Eric Dier already amongst their ranks.

Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino

If Mauricio Pochettino were to move for a midfielder, one would imagine that any kind of potential target would be more of a creative, forward-thinking player, rather than another ball winner.

N'Zonzi has made 69 appearances for Sevilla, since making his move to the club in the summer of 2015 from Stoke City, and has scored seven goals.
